Hi Everyone.

I have had two babies in two years and I am also getting married October 17, 2009. I am wanting to lose 45 lbs by October and have started a daily routine. I was wondering if you all could look over and give suggestions, ie what to add, take out, or even things you all have tried that helped. Every comment will be appreciated. Thanks so much. Enjoy your weekend.

Breakfast – Slimfast shake and 1 piece of reduced calorie whole wheat bread w/ one tbl of peanut butter.

Lunch – one can of Select harvest light chicken soup with rice. and one turkey sandwhich which is one slice of reduced cal. wheat bread, mustard, lettuce, deli turkey, 2% cheese and some water.

Dinner – a select harvest soup and a chicken ceasar salad or a house salad and a 6 oz. ribeye with steamed mixed veggies.

Snacks – 2 a day: usually a 100 calorie pack of nutter cookies and one 90 calorie granola bar.

For excercise I go to the gym everyday but Sunday and do

30 mins on treadmill at 5% incline and 3.0 mph
20 mins on stationary bike
and the toning machine circuit my gym offers.

So what do you all think? Will I lose the 45 lbs by October? Should I be doing anything differently? Thanks everybody. Have a great weekend!!
